The Q Casino in Dubuque is undergoing a $75 million renovation as part of a multi-year expansion plan.

The work is underway and will be completed in five stages:

  • Phase 1: Created a temporary casino by remodeling the viewing area of the former racing grandstand and connecting it to the existing casino floor. Phase 1 is now open.
  • Phase 2: Remodeled the lower casino and entertainment area, and added bar-top slot machines, which opened in the summer 2024.
  • Phase 3: Create an all-ages Family Entertainment in the temporary casino space to open early in 2025.
  • Phase 4: Build a new Hilton Tapestry boutique hotel with a rooftop restaurant next to the existing Hilton Garden Inn, to open in fall 2025.
  • Phase 5: Remodel the exterior of the building, add new outdoor signage, and improve landscaping and parking areas by the end of 2025.
